Arrived in Waco.
Waco Day.
Deputy-United- State-Marsrhl J.
H. Bull arrived yesterday from! San
Angelo, having in custody John H
Gray, who was arrested a few tdays
since at Colorado, Texas, by Captain
Dick Ware, sheriff of Mitchell county,
One complaint charges Gray with
robbing the United States mail
pouches on the 27th ultimo, at Wil
low Hole, on the San Angelo and lial
linger stage line,and the other charges
him with detaining the United States
mails on the nth instant. United
States Commissioner John H. Finks
placed Gray's bond in the first m
stance at $5,000, andin the second at
$1,000. The preliminary hearing will
take place Monday, August 27 th next, f
in this city, before Commissioner
Finks. Gray is a young man of pleas
ing appearance, about 25 years of age,
dark hair and eyes and wears a neat
business suit, He was raised in Mc
Lennan County, and moved from the
neighborhood of Waco to Tom Green
county about six years ago. Mrs.
Cornelius Patterson, of McGregor, is
his mother. He was indicted for
theft of a horse by a Waco grand jury
some years ago, and when the case
was called a nolle pros, was entered.
Meanwhile he was in jail, so that the
quarters assigned him on his failure
to make bond were not unfamilliar.
Gray may be innocent as a lamb of
stage and mail robbery, with which he
is charged. He, however, is a man
evidently of the nerve and jauntiness
needed to do robbing in the fashion of
the execution of the San Angelo stage
coaches. Sheriff Dick Ware, who ar.
rested Gray, was a Texas ranger once,
and a comrade of Conssable Lee Jen
kins and other Waco ex-rangers. He
it was v ho shot and killed Sam Bass
on that memorable summer day in
1878, about ten years ago, at Round
Kock.

Soup Made of a Trunk .

We tried thd flesh of the slain ele
phants cookedlin various ways, roast,
boiled, stewed.lcurried, but with indif
ferent success (although our Madras

inary art, tried Ml he knew to make
the dishes paitable. The flesh fs

viting in appearance.
The best andlmost appetizing dish
of all was soup Aade out of the trunk,
says a Burmah Correspondent of the
San Francisco Ctronicle. Portions of
the trunk" are cut nto small pieces and
gently stewed i r hours, excluding
their rich juice, 1 tyoring being added
in the shape of s omatic herbs grow
ing on the spot.
The soup was Imply delicious, Of
a unique flavor aid rich gummy con-
sistence, it more isembled thick tur
tle soup than any Either I knew of. It
was, without doubt, nutritious and
strengthening. It also much remind
ed me of mouffle, a rich, thick, soupy
stew made of moose muscles, which
delicacy I had made acquaintance
with while out moose hunting in East
ern Canada. The feet of the smaller
elephants also were rather good. They
were roasted slowly in wood ashes, the
tough skin peeled off and served au
natutel.
V
We met with varied success during
the six weeks of our hunting expedi
tion, killing seven elephants in all,
wnicn was pcrtectly satisfactory.
One day in crbssini; somt 1

less, we handled It freely. We c
leel the bones of some animal
neath the distended skin.
After our shekarnes had cutl
the boa's head they ripped the LI
open ana lound a mountain sheep
side. It was not an invitine sne
cle, as the body of the sheep i
slimy and presented a honied, flat!
ed appearance, showing that its be
were crushed. Our shekarries, hi
ever, thought different from us,
they cut the sheep up and carried it
camp to cook lor supper. They a
utilized the boa for food, drying
flesh in the sun.
